I've tried to come up with words that haven't been overused in this type of art
(assemblages, alterations, etc.)
A typical choice would have been "imagine."
And, in my opinion, is overused.
When a word is overused, the meaning is diminished.
I like the word "invite."
The possibilities are endless - and very kind don't you think?
This inchie uses an Inchie Arts white inchie base, wrapping paper, watercolor paper, microbeads, pearl-ex powder, a brass charm with the hanger removed, and a krylon gold leafing pen.
This is my letter "i" for this week's Inchie by Inch challenge.
I "invite" you to try making an inchie
they're
inchie cinchie
easy peasy
especially when you start with an Inchie Arts base :)
These insanely tiny pieces are beginning to call my name. Now if I could just figure out a way to make them bigger (grin).
ReplyDeleteInvite is a great word, and it is especially pertinent when inviting bloggers to tea.
A great choice of word for our I inchy - and I love the way you invited more people to make an inchie
ReplyDeleteNever heard of an inchie but I like the sound of it. I would have thought it would be difficult working on such a small scale, but you make it sound so easy Kimmie!
ReplyDeletePerfect word choice too :-)
I'm with you re: the 'overused' words. 'Invite' is good....
ReplyDeleteLinda :-)
PS I wish you could have been number 15 in my class too - that would have been lovely!! x
great unusual word to use for this one , love the way you made a border with the beads.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of INVITE, you are right about the word IMAGINE overused in my oppinion too. I accept the invitation...to what and where? :o)
